I had a browse through other posts and I've seen this problem come up
quite often. I am on my sisters computer at the moment, mine is unusuable.
When I startup my PC it goes straight to the options screen (start windows normally/safe mode/last known good configuration - you know the one)
None of these options work. The PC just crashes half way loading any of them and flashes a BSOD mentioning a "BAD_POOL_HEADER".
I cannot get onto safe mode. I can enter the advanced options screen
by hitting F8 but sadly it just reboots again if I try any of these options.
I have a Windows XP repair disk. I changed the BIOS booting order, so
I was luckily able to access this disk.
I followed instructions on a Windows repair, and hit enter to continue (not R),
I thought this would work, but instead of going to the next stage on the repair,
it reverted back to the BSOD bad_pool_header screen and just got stuck there.
My PC is an Advent PC. I tried the recovery disk and the same thing happened..
only the BSOD said "page_fault_in_nonpaged_area" this time.
I really do not know what on earth is going on,
any suggestions at all would be appriciated so so much,
because I really do need to get my computer fixed.
Thankyou in advance.
